Mt4g still alive and well!

Has anyone besides me noticed, that with all the newer handsets that are coming out, the mt4g is still comparable, and not really outdated! I am still loving mine. Best handset is have had to date. And believe me, b4 I got laid off, I was changing phones every 3 to 4 months...

The specs for the MyTouch 4G are great. If I hadn't rooted it, though, this phone would be crappy.

Lol, well I wouldn't go that far. But yes, it does put it right up there with a step behind the Sensation group.
All thanks to these devs.

IMO the sensation really isn't anything special. The screen on it sucks and its not that fast for it being a dual core phone. I played with the epic touch gs2 yesterday....and now that's a phone to drool over. That right now is the only phone out that's worth an upgrade from the mt4g. Again this is just my opinion.

I've heard some bad things about the Sensation, but I think the sluggish speed is caused by the async Snapdragon that Qualcomm made. Both CPUs won't be on unless they're both needed and I'm guessing that doesn't work really good in Gingerbread, so perhaps on 1 core is active. When the Exynos or Tegra 2 the cores are both on all the time, so they should be faster, although they still clock up and down as normal. The screen in lacking, but it's no S/Amoled or IPS or Retina. HTC doesn't really produce nicer screens like the competition, they use S-LCD or LCD in their phones, not sure if they have any other tech ATM.

Well, I can agree on this. I've never been a fan of MyTouch models, but T-Mo forced me. I've been from a T-Mo G1 (Dream), to a T-Mo G2 (Desire Z), then to a samsung Galaxy S 4g and when it got stolen, the assurant would only leave me with a MyTouch 4g. Really can't compare the screen, but hey, I'm more than pleased. I'm quite impressed this phone doesn't have that much of a great feedback from T-Mo. :/ Oh well.

Yeah I've had a bunch, came from an epic and I have to say this phone is good stock. Unity is boss though. Omfg.
Edit: one other thing... This community is so chilled and friendly compared to the previous ones I have been a part of. Thank you people...

Totally happier with this one. SGS4G relied TOO MUCH on the screen~ and it was just annoying sometimes. I got used to physical buttons because of my last phones, so I felt like using an iPhone not an Android. And besides, the SGS4G's front facing camera was just sad.

DhD, TB, and MT4G is last 2GS single core proc of HTC and with even DDR1 768MB we are set for long time. Keep in mind with custom mod hack (script, tweak, rom, kernel) if you know what you doing your set now until we have need for dual core.

Sorry was it hard for you to comprehend?
DhD = Desire HD (GSM)
TB = Thunderbolt (CDMA)
2GS = Second Generation Spandragon
So technically Inspire HD (GSM-US) is equivalent of Desire HD (GSM-EU). Since we real pro die hard SmartPhone user know HTC owns Moto and SamSUX, so that's another subject of its own.
Now the point I was making is as you being home user you yourself do not need or dual core mCPU yet. So MT4G is same spec as Thunderbolt (yes I'm aware of the screen and nand diff). Thus last of its kind not failed attempt to upgrade us to dual core when Android framework so far utilizing only cpu0 as cpu1 thread is most not used as OS and App is not using it yet.

Yeah I'm skipping dual cores then just gonna go for quads or whatever is out in Fall next year.

Most likely, never had the chance to check. The phone got stolen a month after bought so I could barely play around with it. It's not usual of me to root a phone the same day I get it; I stay with root for a few days, and in this case, a month. Now with the MT4G, no way I was gonna stay with stock for a month, no way. |: hahaha.

Hi guys, I've move to the Sensation its nice and all,but mytouch4G seems better and faster to be honest I miss my mytouch4G its a great phone. I'm thinking of selling this Sensation and get HTC Amazed or SGII. But I love Sense but the speakers in HTC sux,gonna be a hard decision.

I'm new to smartphones, got the MT4G in Feb and love it. I just rooted last month and put Virtuous Unity(2.3.5 and V9 unity kernal) on it and it outperformed the Sensation in quadrant and just "feels" better.
The MT4G forums here are great! Even this old man has learned alot.

This is my first smartphone. Rooted and S off the first week. Been impressed eversince. My girl got a g2x it seems sluggish compared to mt4g. Battery life is much better also.

G2x Vs Nexus S (GSM Version)

I am planning on getting either phone.
Which phone do you think is better and WHY?

Nexus s. Pure Google experience. Get updates much faster, such as Ice Cream Sandwich. G2x seems very problematic from what I have heard. The screen on nexus is better, the only thing going for the g2x is the processor and slightly faster data speeds.

Sent from my Nexus S using xda premium

I've had the G2x i traded to the Nexus S
They're about equally matched
The G2x doesnt have reboot issues anymore (after update)
at first, when dual-core was bleeding edge, it had some problems
The screen is slightly curved on the edges
1080p video
Dual-core tegra 2 (my Nexus S outscored the tegra 2 in Quadrant Video subsection)
Screen is average
Less plasticy then the Nex
Speaker is not loud at all
LG doesnt give the best tech support
The Nexus S will get updates faster
No Micro SD (16GB built in at high speed)
NFC (Google Wallet+MasterCard/PayPass)
No 720p video
Screen is amazing, pentile may look funny the first 2 days, but i cant even tell the difference anymore..
Curved glass feels nice on your fingers
Minor WiFi reception problems
It all depends on what you want. I traded a used G2x for a new in-box Nexus S. I just love the AMOLED screen, you cant tell where the screen ends, that's how good the contrast ratio is

No, its an LG Optimus G2x.
The Galaxy S 2 is a GS2.
But thanks guys .. still wondering. Its hard when you want a phone thats going to last you a bit.
Heres how I see it:
nexus s: Better battery, better screen, nicer design.
g2x: Better performance, more powerful phone, better build quality.
So here i am trying to get convinced lol.

Wow i have had both phones & j was happy with my g2x after i learned how to root n upgrade to g.b. but the nexus is kind of faster. I think either phone is good but there's more dev & mods on the g2x.
This is because the nexus s everything works out the box.
Plus you know were gonna be 1 if the 1st to get ics.

Come back in six months when your G2x still does not have ICS. Why not wait for the nexus prime?
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using xda premium

i used tge G2x and currently now im on Nexus S. These are the reasons i didnt like G2x:
-Battery Life is not as good as Nexus S.
-The LCD is actually really nice and bright, how ever the pixel density and image quality are no where near as good as Nexus S.
-To be really picky, the phone is awkward shaped and proportioned, its too tall for its screen size
+every other reason people have mentioned, HOWEVER i didnt have a single known issue problem with mine
hope this helps

Dude, I did the same thing –bought a G2x and a Nexus S on Craigslist and have been playing with them for about week now. G2X, rooted and ROMed, is fast, stable and a nice looking machine. On the right ROM, the battery can last all day, evening with streaming music, calls and texts, and still be half full. The camera is fargging great, too. There are two complaints I have. One is that the G2x feels a little awkward in my hand, especially compared with the curved Nexus S, which fits perfectly. The G2x is just a millimeter or two too wide for a comfortable grip for me. The other is the ICS situation. I’m sure the G2x devs will get ICS onto the phone via Cyanogen or whatever, but because LG won’t be open with certain drivers it’s uncertain whether ICS will be able to take full advantage of the phone. Oh yeah, and the comment about the sound issue is accurate, too. Although sound clarity is great, the speaker is quiet – if you’re in a crowd or noisy room, it can be a little difficult to hear who you’re talking to.
Basically, you can’t go wrong with either phone. I’ll probably hang on to both until it becomes more clear how the ICS situation plays out and then sell one of them.

Honestly, I dont even care about ICS lol .. I just want an all around better phone.

See that is why ics is so important. The UI will be hardware accelerated giving you the smoothest experience possible. Hardware acceleration on a single core will blow away a software accelerated dual core.

I was in the same position as you a while ago. I got a Optimus 2X (AT&T bands) with CM7 and it just wasn't good. Short battery life, GPS problems, reboots and some other small stuff that made it not worth it. Switched back to my CM7 Nexus One and remembered Nexus is always the way to go and waited until I could get meee Nexus S

Speaking only for myself, not a chance. I love this phone.

I think you really will enjoy the Nexus. Its a great phone. I hope to always keep a Nexus in the stable.

I feel the same way, I will most likely always have a Nexus variant if not collect each one.

I wouldn't trade my nexus for anything other than the galaxy nexus. I got mine on the launch day last year and still loving it.

You should definitely trade. I have both and except for the dev support and screen, the sensation is better in everyway. And sense 3.5 on it is BADASS. ONLY carrier overlay that is worth a **** IMO.

I have both the Nexus S AND the Sensation. I like them both almost equally. Although, I do like the way the Sensation feels in my hand a little better. But....YMMV.
It's a tablet dammit! Not a BIG phone....

I wouldn't, it's a marginal hardware update, and then there's sense, which in all of its variations I just don't like. I follow there cm7 though, looking fairly stable at this point. That's a plus if there's one. This is just my opinion, not trying to start a flame war or anything

So true, I'll never buy another bloatware-laden locked down phone evar!!!!

I broke my HTC Desire HD, and as I had to buy a new device, the best and cheapest choice was the Nexus S (LCD here in France, far better than amoled picture wise).
There is only two thing the Nexus S is better than the DHD, its screen with better colors and backlight, and the useless but funny toy: nfc chip. Ah, another one : easy device unlock and rooting !
If I could afford it, I'll buy a Sensation or Incredible S, or even Desire HD any time.
Better alu case, better overall feeling with HTC devices, better camera... More Ram, and so on...
Maybe worse in benchmarks, but overall use experience much smoother and less laggy.
Now HTC devices are again unlocked, so MIUI is again available on theses rigs, so if you have to choose between a Sensation or a Nexus S, I'll choose the the HTC every time!
As you already own a Sensation, from my point of view, you are going a step down, maybe two...
But it is only my opinion.

i think i would swap
but im waiting for the next nexus if i can hold out. i realize i need dual cores. i multitask way to much.
i also want a rock steady gps and the nexus s is flaky at times
i also need a better camera. after the epic i have been spoiled
i might not find the camera portion in the new nexus. i will hold out for the gs3 if i have to get it shipped.

Getting to the top of the benchmarks that you wrote yourself doesn't make your product actually good. Tegra is nvidia TRASH, along with their history of being total douchebags over hardware documentation and the likes. Complete contempt for everything that makes sense.

I would not trade. I'm a hardware buttons and hardware keyboard kind of guy.
That said, I can't stand the MT4GS keyboard. Half the time I press space, I get tactile feedback. Half the time I get tactile feedback, I don't get a space in the text I'm typing.
The Shift, Alt, Enter keys are not where I expect them (one row too high). Let's face it, I'm still in love with my G1's keyboard. Maybe if I could turn my G1 into a bluetooth keyboard, and make the MT4GS accept it as such... possible?
I tried out the Sidekick (much worse, specs-wise)(but hella cheap at the time and still a vast improvement over the G1) and even its keyboard -- while more like what I'm used to -- wasn't quite what I could get on board with.
But no, I wouldn't trade the MT4GS for any other phone currently being sold by T-Mo. Haven't looked at other providers at all.

Id take an Amaze or GSII over my Doubleshot. It was a major let down, I've had 3 chances for those phones. But I'm just waiting for CM9, this kinda is the only duel core KB phone. But for a Atrix 2. Hella No.

I rather have my rooted G2 over a S-On non-rooted doubleshot. There was a fuse that went that renders my screen useless on the G2. I bought this because it was easier to find and the specs are much better. The keyboard is backwards though and a huge let down. Still, its some what useable most of the time. This phone is pretty useless without root. Damn kid upgraded the phone hours before I bought it after I told him not to prior to the purchase. I miss root!

Were I that worried about it myself, I'd have told him he lost out on a sale by doing that after having been told not to. But then, I'd've been using a G1 since October 2008, and wouldn't've minded the extra wait for a decent replacement. Obviously your situation was different; just sayin.

GS3, Optimus G or 1X+ for att?

I'm looking to switch to att and can't figure out what phone to go with. I like the 1x+, but not sure about sticking with HTC. The optimus is only $100 so that's kind of where I'm leaning right now. Any suggestions or input would be greatly appreciated.

Yup the one X+ is the better build and ships with jb. I did the research last night for my gf who is planning on breaking from from apple in January. Only thing is that you'd have to deal with strong possibility HTC won't update as frequently as Samsung. And also the camera is better on the s3.
Google this "samsung Galaxy s3 vs HTC one x+" it should get you the reviews with enough info to consider before making a final decision

IMHO, I'd wait & see what comes out of CES and how soon. For all you know the M7 could be right around the corner, although it'd probably be $100 shy of a Macbook Air.

I'm really considering the optimus g because you can pick one up for $99 and I really like that it has the s4 pro and 2gigs of ram. Is the 1x+ worth $100 more than the lg and is the tegra 3 on the same level as the s4 pro?
Sent from my EVO using xda premium

When given a choice like this always go for the non LG (sorry if that's harsh) I've had enough hands on with them to always be worried when faced with one. The biggest overall issue issue is that the support from LG and the tools provided to work with their devices are beyond frustrating and cumbersome to work with. The quality of the manufacturing makes me wonder sometimes too. The optimus g is nice looking, wicked quick, has a decent os on it and is a great device but even with just a bit of limited handling its already starting to show signs of wear on the out of the box perfect looking exterior. HTC phones are built like tanks and yep the cameras have been kickass. Sammy is always a good call lately too. My advice is if you go LG get a case and treat it like a precious jewel...you do get what you pay for ..or just go HTC or Sammy
That's just my personal opinion..but you should go hands on with all 3 and decide for youself
